Laura Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 January 14th – SPEEDBUMPCheck your back-ups! Even if you use an online service or scheduled software for your back-ups, it is a good idea to check and make sure they are running as you have them set up. How do you back-up your photos? REQUIREMENT: Share your chosen method(s) in this thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CRS Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Jan 14th-backups Since I had to use my backup this week to restore my photos, this is fresh in my mind. I save every photo to my ehd and back them up to another ehd. I save all my photos on the memory card from my camera and my phone. I save my scrapbook pages in the same ehd, so I save a finished jpeg copy of my layouts on my laptop so I have them in 2 locations until they get backed up. I lost my psd files, but that's ok. I know it's probably not the most efficient method but it works for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Belle Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 This morning I decided to do backups. I backup to 2 EHDs. My photos I also backup this way. My photos I put in PSE organiser. That is sorted into the different families, Friends, Nature etc. If I don't do this, I would never find anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mimes1 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I use software called Good Sync. Jo Corne turned me onto it years ago. I store everything initially on an EHD, I call that my working drive. I don’t store anything on the computer scrap or photo related. Then using Good Sync I back up to two separate Hard Drives one by one. That way I have everything in three places. It’s unlikely that all three would fail at the same time. Or so I’m told. So today, I will back up! Last time I backed up was before we moved. And then I packed the hard drives so securely I couldn’t find one of them for MONTHS! They’ve all been found, and I will beck them up this week! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Florida granny Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Jan 13: journaling done. Jan 14: I back up monthly to two EHD's. Hopefully if one fails the other will have the data. @mimes1 I'll have to check out that software. It sounds more efficient than what I'm doing currently. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mimes1 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Question - do I need to sign up anywhere on a thread for participation for JJ? I"m not seeing one - if there is one can someone direct me to it please? Thank you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scrapgran Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Jan 14 - Like most people I back up to ehd’s. I also have a lot of photos on cd. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CRS Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 So, I bought some canned air and sprayed it in the bad ehd's usb slot and now it works again! So I didn't lose anything at all! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
